Subject: [PATCH 0/6] sparse-checkout: make set subsume init
Date: Sat, 04 Dec 2021 20:00:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1151.git.git.1638648020.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
As described at [1], the split of init and set subcommands in
sparse-checkout causes multiple issues:
* Poor performance (deleting all tracked files, then later restoring many
and maybe even most of them)
* Poor UI (multiple progress bars in wrappers that hide both commands under
1 user-facing command)
* Loss of ignored files under directories the user wanted to keep
This series fixes this bug by providing a single command to switch to a
sparse-checkout: set. It does so by making set able to do the combined work
of init and set. It keeps init as-is to give folks time to adapt, but marks
it as deprecated.
A quick overview:
* Patches 1-2: small preparatory refactorings
* Patch 3: the crux of the series
* Patches 4-5: documentation modifications (Patch 4 is worth reviewing; it
marks init as deprecated -- are others okay with that?)
* Patch 6: trivial modification of git clone --sparse to use git
sparse-checkout set rather than git sparse-checkout init.
